All of the rosewell adapters have now died. Called newegg, got

Marius,
You need to see what kind of encoder the Yaskawa motor has on it. I recall

Hello,
what would be a good PCIe card t use with linux-cnc,
would any card that does ECP/EPP do?
I use Syba PEX10005 cards with my FPGA controller boards,
they seem to work well with a wide
variety of motherboards. They are also relatively cheap.
